Aaron Neyer is a multidisciplinary software engineer and community leader with 13 years of experience building full-stack applications, developer tools, and cloud client libraries, including contributions to Google Cloud Python storage and Cloud Code samples. He brings a human-first developer-relations approach from his time at Google and blends that with a deep interest in living systems and regenerative practice—evident in his MA in Ecopsychology and leadership of Woven Web. Based in Boulder, he pairs pragmatic engineering (backend, test automation, data work) with civic engagement as Chair of the Human Relations Commission and a past city council candidate. Comfortable bridging product, community, and code, he’s now exploring ML/AI while helping local ecosystems connect technology to planetary and social health.
